About Quest
Quest is designed to inspire and support individual spiritual development with a focus on daily spiritual practice. The structure of the program involves personal exploration and reflection in a community/interpersonal setting. The first iteration of the program at BUUF ended in April 2015, with 15 participants completing the journey. A new steering committee/Ministry Team has been formed and is presently doing the groundwork for Quest II.
Information sessions will be held after each Sunday Service through April 24. Applications for Quest II are being accepted now, through April and the program will begin September 23, 2016, with up to 18 participants.
